The era when large overseas companies wanted to make money with high patent fees has now come to an end.
Historically, many companies have made a lot of money with high patent fees, and a typical example is Qualcomm. In the 5G era, Nokia is even more deceitful, targeting many domestic mobile phone manufacturers, among which OPPO is the worst.
According to public data, Nokia has filed relevant accusations against OPPO in more than 10 countries, and has had patent disputes with OPPO. Not only that, but also require the market in some countries to directly remove OPPO's mobile phones. It can be said that they are "ruthless" to Chinese enterprises to a certain extent. However, fortunately, OPPO has always insisted, they refuse to compromise Nokia's high patent fees, and have been stubbornly stumbling on the dispute with Nokia.
And at this point, the mainland has also stood up for OPPO. After OPPO appealed to the court on the patent dispute with Nokia, the result of the judgment appeared: it was clarified that the global cumulative rate of the 5G standard in the mobile phone industry was 4341％-5.273％。
In this regard, OPPO said that they are willing to comply with the regulations to pay Nokia the relevant patent fees. Seeing this response, many netizens began to be dissatisfied, and they still had to pay patent fees, which is equivalent to a dispute between OPPO and Nokia, or Nokia has a greater chance of winning.
But is that really the case?You must know that being in trouble for a long time has not been very smooth for OPPO's overseas layout. Moreover, in terms of the essence of patent fees, since OPPO has used Nokia's patents, it should give Nokia a certain patent fee. If this matter has been dragged on, only OPPO will suffer. But now it is different, OPPO has broken this deadlock, and this regulation is a defeat for Nokia.
Because of this regulation, it directly cut off the way for Nokia to charge high patent fees.
In the past, there was no clear industry standard for 5G royalties, and manufacturers such as Nokia and Ericsson were almost lions. Take Nokia as an example, the number of necessary patents is not as many as Huawei, but the collection of patent fees is much higher than Huawei. Obviously, they think that no one can control their operation of collecting patent fees, which is why they dare to repeatedly attack Chinese companies on patent fees.
Now, with clear industry standards, domestic mobile phone manufacturers such as OPPO do not need to pay unreasonable patent fees on it. This relieves a lot of pressure for their subsequent costs. The most important thing is that this has broken the situation of their first charge, and it will be difficult for them to make a big fuss about OPPO and other manufacturers from overseas markets in the futureAfter all, the mainland already has a clear attitude on this matter. Therefore, from this level, OPPO's winning side is greater.
Aside from Nokia, there are several remaining giants in the communications industry, and they must also refer to such standards in charging patent fees, and demarcate the line between unreasonable patent fees. This is OPPO's own struggle, but also for more domestic mobile phone manufacturers, to let Nokia understand that Chinese mobile phone manufacturers are not the object of their free "cutting leeks". That's all there is to it, and OPPO's hard shoulder this time has a lot of significance.
To be able to come to this situation, OPPO has really worked a lot. If they compromise in the middle, the high royalties will stay with them for a long time in the future. What do you think about this?Feel free to leave a comment, like and share this!
